Reddit reviews Tired Thyroid: From Hyper to Hypo to Healing—Breaking the TSH Rule

Thyroid patients could be divided into three categories:

1. Still have their thyroid, newly diagnosed, and wanting to try natural options, such as diet, to improve thyroid function.
   
2. Diet may or may not have helped. Need information about medication options.
   
3. No thyroid--already had a thyroidectomy or RAI, for whatever reason: Graves', goiter, cancer, etc. Need information about full replacement dose options.
   
   These are radically different scenarios, and the sidebar should be broken into these 3 (or is 2 part of 3?) sections, with books and websites or other links that could help. The sidebar now only pertains to scenario 1.
   
   I am scenario 3: RAI for Graves', which is why I find the Tired Thyroid book and website helpful. It's about trying to find your optimal dose on medication, because dosing by TSH simply doesn't work. The book debunks a lot of other thyroid myths too. Both the book and website reference numerous legitimate medical studies, so it can be shared with your doctor.
   
   You, campassi, are Scenario 1, so you push diet. I would like to see book recommendations, in case I wanted to do more reading on the topic. There are a LOT of thyroid books with words in the title like Healing or Curing or Healthy or Diet, but which ones are good, and which are garbage? There's SO much poorly written garbage out there! Nearly every book has a 4-5 star review, so even reviews aren't helpful, unless I read the 1-star reviews!
   
   Anyway, just some thoughts. Hopefully others will add to this.

Thyroid book from a patient's point of view. I cite over 900 references to show that treatment from doctors doesn't make sense. I then show that much of what patient internet groups believe isn't true either! http://www.amazon.com/Tired-Thyroid-Hyper-Healing-Breaking/dp/1495355535/
